top | item 32974001 (no title) achn | 3 years ago Is there a html/css only way to automatically “columnize” text into multiple columns of reasonable width? discuss order hn newest iza|3 years ago There is the columns CSS property: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/CSS/columnsYou probably don't want to apply it to a whole document because then you need to scroll back to the top to read the second half. But it can be effective to columnize text sections between headings. achn|3 years ago Thanks. I’d love to see automatic pagination as well so it builds full window columnized “pages”.
